Hello again!

I cannot BELIEVE its already January 22, 2009! Seriously... it is surprising and yet welcome because up here in the frozen tundra, January and February can feel mighty long. The quicker spring gets here the better!

Not a lot has been going on here in our lives. Still enjoying married life, cooking more at home and playing games of all kinds, we live a simple yet happy life.

I suppose I can talk about Christmas!

This year we drove down to Georgia to spend Christmas week with my in laws. My sister in law lives in Georgia and that is where the family gathers each year for the holiday. My mother and father in law drove down as well. It was nice to spend time with everyone and get to know my in laws a bit more. I took lots of pictures of our youngest niece and nephew. I did not get many of our oldest niece as she is 16 and likes to spend time alone in her room but I have a few. I still need to do a lot of editing.

We were in Georgia for about a week. We ended up leaving a day early because everyone was getting sick. We were hoping to beat the "sickies" but ended up getting pretty sick when we arrived home. It was nice to be in our own home though instead of on the road. I ended up with a really bad case of the "crud" that never wanted to leave. D was a bit more worse off. He had a bad sinus infection. Then wouldn't you know, about a week and a half into his antibiotics he started showing signs of an allergic reaction! So now both of us have to stay away from all the "cillins."

Now we are both healthy which is a very nice feeling. Feeling a bit of cabin fever right now. We are not winter people so we do not enjoy winter sports much. I am so looking forward to spring!

I am going to save any more updates for future posts. I hope to have some pictures up soon!
